Married at First Sight Chapter 539
In the kitchen, Zachary overheard every word of Grandma May’s conversation with Serenity.
He was used to his nana’s favoritism towards Serenity.
Nana had long wished for a granddaughter, but instead, she had welcomed nine grandsons.
She took an instant liking to Serenity, seeing her as a granddaughter. However, the thought that Serenity would have to marry someone one day made her reconsider.
Consequently, Nana did everything possible to make Serenity her granddaughter-in-law, ensuring that Serenity would be part of the York family forever.
Zachary washed the dishes and cleaned the stove before rinsing the cloth and washing his hands as he left the kitchen.
Serenity stood up to fetch his jacket and tie. Although she still struggled with tying a tie, Zachary appreciated her effort.
Zachary felt it was worth his time to wash the dishes if it meant earning a little affection from Serenity.
Grandma May was pleased with Serenity’s gesture, recognizing it as a reward for Zachary. He would be eating out of her hand. Successful relationships thrive on give-and-take; if only one person gives while the other takes, the giver may eventually feel disheartened.
Half an hour later, they arrived at the shop. By then, Jasmine had set it up, but she ignored the Hunts.
Aside from Old Mr. Hunt, who asked Mike to bring him a chair from the shop, the others were either standing or squatting at the entrance, appearing impatient after waiting so long. Only God knew how many cigarettes John had smoked.
After sending an anonymous letter to Mr. York, John was confident he would join York Corporation. Unfortunately, he—
He heard nothing in response. John refused to seek employment with minor companies, let alone York Corporation. No one would hire him.
In addition to his own unemployment, the entire family’s jobs and businesses suffered significantly. They were losing sales to competitors and facing financial losses. John understood better than anyone that the person supporting Serenity was responsible for their troubles.
He was scared.
John convinced Granddad to set aside his pride and encouraged the rest of the family to reconcile with Serenity. They were also there to discuss Liberty and Hank’s divorce. Mrs. Brown had come to the hospital with a sum of money, asking to speak with Old Mr. Hunt. She implored the Hunts to persuade Liberty to reconsider the divorce. Money had its influence. Old Mr. Hunt accepted the money from Liberty’s mother-in-law and agreed to take on the task. As requested, he brought his children and grandchildren to meet with Serenity first.
“Aren’t you ashamed to keep your elders waiting?” Old Mr. Hunt chastised Serenity as soon as she stepped out of the car. Serenity and Zachary assisted the elderly woman into the shop, with Serenity faintly replying, “I didn’t ask you to wait.”
“Grandma May.” Jasmine immediately stood up and pulled out a chair for the elderly lady.
She whispered to her best friend, “Seren, they didn’t come in peace. They’ve been waiting for a long time. I have a feeling they won’t leave until they see the money.” Serenity gently patted Jasmine’s arm to reassure her.
